A Reconciliation of the Freudian and Humanistic/Transpersonal Views of Human Nature.

Pearl, Joseph H.

Social Behavior and Personality, v12 n1 p11-15 1984

Suggests a resolution to the apparent conflict between the Freudian and humanistic/transpersonal views of human nature. Presents a model which allows for the fulfillment of Freud's desire to account for both the life and death instincts as manifestations of a tendency to restore an earlier state of things. (LLL)
